Crackling Spinach From Mainland China

As the name suggests that this preparation is from Mainland China. I was introduced to this recipe by S when he had taken us out for a dinner at Mainland China in Mumbai about five years ago. Out of all the preparations that we tried there, this became an instant favorite. And ever since then, I had always wanted to try this out.

It was hard to believe that the spinach could taste so nice. As the name suggests that this preparation makes a crackling sound on eating. It crackles as it is very crispy so one can also call this preparation as crispy spinach. The preparation is very simple and can be an excellent starter for parties as it will surely catch any one’s attention. It needs very few ingredients and can be made very quickly if one has already kept ready washed and dried spinach. This preparation is definitely not for calorie conscious people or for people on diet.
